# OpenXR in NixOS

OpenXR is a standard for eXtended Reality (XR) applications and drivers (providers).

OpenXR runtime providers must ensure that the library path of the runtime's shared library can be loaded by Nix applications. If your OpenXR runtime provider runs in an FHSEnv, this means you may have to use `auto-patchelf` to link dependencies to the Nix store.

Title: OpenXR in NixOS: Ensuring Runtime Library Path

Summary

This section discusses the OpenXR standard in NixOS, focusing on the requirement for runtime providers to ensure their shared library path is accessible to Nix applications. It highlights the potential need for `auto-patchelf` when the runtime provider operates within an FHSEnv to link dependencies to the Nix store.
